Recommendation for Limon tour off Coral Princess

[mmsoko]

Would be interested to hear of experiences with any of the tours offered by Coral Princess in Limon.

 

Is the 1 1/2 hour bus ride to the canal tour worth the trip?

 

Any and all comments will be appreciated. Thanks

It is absolutely worth the trip! We took the Costa Rica's Favorites tour and it was outstanding. The aerial tram was sedate and restful (no wildlife except for a few butterflies). The gift shop was excellent (given the length of the tour it might be your best bet for shopping). Lunch was very tasty but the real highlight was the canals. We saw 4 separate groups of howler monkeys, sloths, a huge croc in the water, numerous very large caimans on sandbars very near the boat, big iguanas, bats, abundant water fowl, etc.

 

Highly recommended!

We also took the Tortugeruo Canal excursion and I agree with Mike in that it was one of the best excursions we have ever taken. It is worth it.

did you book the tour through the cruiseline or on your own?

We booked through Princess. By the way, our guide was one of the best I have ever had. Other passengers on different buses felt the same way, so the company Princess uses is really top notch.

 

Have a great cruise.

We also took a ships excursion rather than on our own.
